With Sente, you start with a free Basic account, which may be all you ever need.
If you find you need to create or sync larger libraries,
you can upgrade to a Premium Sente account.

Start with a Free Basic Account

When you first launch Sente,
you are given a free Basic Sente account.

With a free Basic account you can:

install and use Sente on up to 6 Macs or iPads,

create any number of Sente libraries,

store up to 100 references in each library,

sync any number of libraries, across all your devices,

sync up to 250MB of PDFs and other files,

view any library that another user shares with you.

And all of the important Sente features are available
with a Basic account.
You can use targeted browsing, read and annotate PDFs,
and take notes.
You can even use Sente to format the citations and bibliographies
in your own documents using any of the supported word processors.

A free Basic Sente account does not expire.
It may very well be the only Sente license you ever need.

Upgrade to a Premium Account

As your research needs grow,
you can upgrade to a Premium account.

With a Premium account you can:

install and use Sente on up to 6 Macs or iPads,

create any number of Sente libraries,

store an unlimited number of references in each library,

sync any number of libraries, across all your devices,

sync unlimited* PDFs and other files,

view and edit any library that another user shares with you (assuming they grant edit permission).

An upgrade to a Premium account is available for:

$59.99 for students, faculty and staff at accredited
academic institutions, and

$79.99 for everyone else.

You can upgrade to a Premium account here:

Or, you can upgrade directly within Sente for Mac,
using the Sente 6 > Upgrade to Premium Account command.

In either case, your account will be upgraded immediately
and the changes will take effect the next time you launch
the software.

Like with the Basic account, a Premium account does not expire.

* A Premium account gives you an automatic 20GB of sync space for PDFs
and other attachments.
If for some reason you find that you need even more space,
just contact us and we will increase your allocation
at no charge.
